Planet SN: Acoustic performance for sliding doors
Achieving reliable acoustic performance with sliding and pocket doors has long been a challenge. Open clearances and complex movement paths often limit the effectiveness of traditional threshold sealing systems.

Developed specifically for sliding and pocket door applications, the Planet SN combines Swiss-engineered precision with exceptional ease of use. Its automatic mechanism engages as the door closes, creating a consistent seal at the threshold.
Key features
- Up to 44 dB acoustic insulation – dependable sound reduction performance.
- Release force only 1 N/m – exceptionally light, effortless operation.
- No reset force – automatic function with no mechanical reset required.
- Compatible with entry systems – no lock required.
- Suitable for doors running in or in front of the wall.
- Mortised design for concealed installation and refined detailing.
Ideal for applications where quiet performance and design integrity are essential – from hotels and residential developments to healthcare and workplace environments – the Planet SN enables sliding doors to achieve the same level of acoustic and smoke containment expected of hinged door assemblies.
